Camden County Maintained fiscal stability with zero debt
service and an “Aa3†credit rating given by Moody’s.
Moody's is a leading provider of credit ratings, research
and risk analysis. They are an essential component of
the global capital markets, providing credit ratings, re-
search, tools and analysis.
Revenues and expenditures were balanced with a slight
increase in the General Fund millage rate of 0.24 (a 2%
increase). In addition, there was a 1 mil increase for eco-
nomic development countywide that will be maintained
separately for the Joint Development Authority (JDA).
Achieving a balanced budget is no small task: discipline,
innovation and commitment are key. To the taxpayer, we
pledge our best effort and nothing less is acceptable.
The fourth highest rating in Moody's Long-term Corporate
Obligation Rating, obligations rated Aa3 are judged to be
of high quality and are subject to very low credit risk.
